As a writer of fiction who deals with technology, I necessarily deal with the history of technology and the history of technologically induced social change. I roam up and down it in a kind of special way because I roam down it into history, which is invariably itself a speculative affair.

If we truly believe in the power of cultural institutions to impact communities and engage authentically with social justice issues, if we believe in museums’ capacity to bring about social change, improve cultural awareness, and even transform the world, than we must also believe that our internal practices have an impact, and must act according to the changes we seek.

I was reading a book... 'the history of glue' - I couldn't put it down.

Changes are products of intensive efforts.

Technological discoveries are the spermatozoa of social change.

Nonprofits are the intermediaries between generosity and social change.
